Samsung Unveils New line of portable media players Bluetooth enabled Stephen Fung October 25, 2007 Press Release MISSISSAUGA, ON, October 25, 2007 – Imagine a Bluetooth-compatible sound system with a widescreen DVD functionality that’s controlled by a dynamic, animated and personalized touch screen. Now, imagine it fits into the palm of your hand. The Samsung YP-P2 and YP-T10 models are the latest additions to the company’s impressive line of portable products designed to enhance video and sound quality while providing a user-friendly interface for all lifestyles. “With these new models, Samsung is showing consumers we are in touch with their needs and are providing them with the portable technology they need to indulge in their medium of choice while remaining connected to the outside world,” said Kijun Lee, Product Manager, Consumer Electronics Division, Samsung Electronics Canada. Each model is designed with Samsung’s Digital Natural Sound engine (DNSe), reproducing the genuine bass sounds intended by music creators. The new, slim and sleek formats include features such as 2″ (T10) to 3″ (P2) screens and groovy icons and graphic images that guide users through the mobile functions and allow them to personalize their player using their own photos as a background. The e-book function allows users to pass time on the subway while Bluetooth compatibility ensures the music pauses when the cell phone rings. “In today’s world, staying connected is a critical part of life,” said Lee. “These new MP3 models allow users to read their e-books, blast their tunes or watch their favourite movies, and TV shows without worrying about missing important calls.” Club-going audiophiles in Toronto and Vancouver will get a special opportunity as well: the chance to win a YP-P2 MP3 player.
